Potentials for China – Philippine Cooperation on Climate Action (2019)
Unabated, climate disruptions continue to manifest through extreme weather events such as super typhoons, prolonged drought conditions, and abnormal precipitation patterns, as well as sea level rise and ecosystem disturbances, directly impacting human and non-human lives, communities, and ecosystems. China and the Philippines are not spared of these ongoing changes. The vulnerabilities to climate impacts of their communities, both coastal and inland, are projected to be among the most severe.
This is a summary of the 139-page white paper prepared by Laurence Delina commissioned by Oxfam in the Philippines, with support from Oxfam Hong Kong, with the aim of provoking a discussion among government agencies and civil society organizations in China and the Philippines about the potentials for bilateral cooperation on climate change action.
